Vehicle pneumatic tire having a tread (6) with a contact surface (7) to the roadway, a first bead region (4) with an electrically conductive bead part (9) with a contact surface (10) to the rim, two sidewalls (3) and a strip (12) made of an electrically conductive rubber compound, which electrically conductively contacts the bead part (9) and extends between carcass (2) and sidewall (3) into the tread region (11) and runs in the tread region (11) axially between tread (6) and sidewall (3). The rubber compound of the tread (6) is designed to be electrically conductive. The strip (12) electrically conductively contacts the tread (6). The strip (12) electrically conductively connects the bead part (9) and the tread (6) to one another. It is the object of the invention to provide, in a simple manner, a vehicle pneumatic tire whose electrical conductivity is reliably ensured over the entire service life of the vehicle pneumatic tire while simultaneously having good rolling resistance.
